We started Rice Bowl Ministries in 2008 after helping people with different needs.

Cal has spent the last 17 years working with different food banks in Skagit County. He had also started Shepherds Heart Food Bank in Burlington, Wa. (which is now located in Hamilton, Wa). He worked with Love In The Name of Christ (Love INC), receiving donations and delivering furniture to families. He was awarded the "Man of the Year Award" in 2008 through the Elks Club in Anacortes, Wa.

Jackie has always given to others. She has opened up her home. She has jumped in when there was a need and loves helping people. After being widowed, she gave her life to the Lord and asked him to use her to help others.

There was no wonder when these two got together that this ministry soon came to be. They both love the Lord and love helping others.They have dedicated their lives to sharing the Lord and serving others.

They are always looking for people with the same heart to share in their ministry. If you are interested in helping, please contact them.
